Now it is a haven of peace, a superbly comfortable private house, tastefully decorated, breathing a light, bright and airy atmosphere.

The seven acres of lovely gardens add to the ultimate experience of space and privacy.  The property is surrounded a perfect lawn, bordered by flowering plants, Mediterranean shrubs and an abundance of fruit trees.

The attractive pool area is situated slightly away from the house. As is the whole property, the pool area is amazing, every detail thought through.

The pool area has a lovely round pool house, offering a shower and changing area, and a larger pool house with dining, bar and kitchen facilities.

Of course you can choose to dine in the open plan sitting-dining area, close to the open fire, at the large wooden table with a great view on the garden.

However, the most idyllic spot to dine during the warmer months definitely is the pool house.

Ronda is famous for it’s spectacular Puente Nuevo that spans the deep canyon that divides Ronda’s old and ‘new’ quarters, and there are Moorish palaces, Renaissance mansions and Andalusia’s best preserved Arab baths.

You can easily make visits to Jerez, Seville, Granada, a trip to Morocco, to the coast or nearby lakes, or to the famous pueblos blancos (white villages) in the area.

There are many spectator events from visiting a bull breeding farm, going to a poncho factory, watching olive oil being pressed, visiting a local bodega or having a flamenco evening arranged at the house itself. The staff can show you the good restaurants and tapas bars to eat in - including the exceptional Tragabuches restaurant. They are able to tell you what is going on in the annual Andalucian diary – from the Feria de Pedro Romero with its bullfights in Ronda in September, to the annual crossing of the Guadalquivir river, and much more.
